Nice place! Not having to interact with a lot of people which was nice. Wish there was a vending machine with toothpaste and stuff, but I got around to it with CVS. The area is lively and full of bars, but Philly is slightly scary at night lol, in that area specifically. The hotel was clean and nice, not many complaints in that part. I actually enjoyed it. The windows are frosted and looked onto another apartment building so it lacked some sunlight, but the area is so walkable that you can just go out for a walk. And I really appreciated having the iron and ironing board specially for my trip. Great stay! Would do it again.
The building had tons of character, was very clean, bed was comfortable. You are in the city and it’s an older historic building so you will hear the city. You will not interact with a human for check in, check out or at all for the stay (no staff). It’s in a great location and I enjoyed my stay.
Good location, short walk to Rittenhouse Square and Chinatown. Lock code worked fine. There was a dripping sound in the bathroom ceiling ( no water, but evidence of rust) and nobody is available on Sunday to take the complaint. Not a big deal because there was no water dripping. It will not impact a return stay.
DO NOT BOOK HERE!!!
Access to the building is by a keypad at street level. My Sonder access code was greyed out and I couldn’t get in the building. There is no lobby or staff at this location.
Sonder’s phone support line couldn’t send me the code. I was stuck in the cold for over half an hour trying to get in.
A person working for Sonder entered the building. I followed her in and 20 minutes later she gave me the access code. If she didn’t come I would have needed to purchase another room elsewhere.
